700 IP Challenge (Results) Topic

The Prizes:
As mentioned above I'll be giving out three GCs for various accomplishments. Now, each of these can be gamed and someone could throw off the whole league just going for the GC, so I'm stating up front that I'll be issuing these only for those that play within the spirit of the theme. So, if someone sets up a pitcher as their starter 1 for the whole season and has their pitcher throwing fatigued and racking up a 16.00+ ERA, .500 OAV, and 4.00 WHIP, but manages to meet the requirements for two GCs, they won't get it. These are the prizes for those who achieve these accomplishments and play within the spirit of the rules.*

Most Games - a $10 GC for whomever can get the most games out of their 700 IP pitcher. If you can get more than 110 (at 90%+ fatigue), I'll even bump this up to a $15 GC.

Highest IP Increase - Next to each pitcher I've listed a target IP in parentheses. there will be a $10 GC to whomever get the highest % increase over this target. If someone can get 800 IP out of the pitchers with less than 720 IP, or 900 IP out of the 740-800 IP guys, or 1,000 IP out of Morris or Clarkson, then I'll bump this to $15, as well (all 90% or better appearances).

The third GC may end up going to someone who gets one of the two above, but it's possible someone else may qualify for it... This will go to the person with the most games by their pitcher at 100% (minimum 86 games -- as I can get 85 100% starts without even trying).

Micki wins the prize for getting the most games out of the 700 IP pitcher and also earns the extra $5 by getting 110+ games over 90% with 123 90%+ appearances.

Zubinsum wins the prize for getting the most games out of the 700 IP pitcher at 100% (min. 86) with 89 100% games.

brianjw wins the prize for the highest increase in IP over the target for the 700 IP pitcher by being the only owner to get an increase out of his pitcher getting 772.7 IP out of Radbourn who was targeted for 750.
